It is with sad and heavy hearts that we announce the recent passing of our dear friend and Board Member, Dan Gleeson. Dan and Tommy met in kindergarten – and years of fun, mischief, shared joys and sorrows would follow as they grew up. Danny was a man “bigger than life” at times, with a generosity of spirit and exuberant love of life that we all loved and will miss dearly. Danny stood with our family when Tommy was taken too soon. Now we stand with his.

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are callingFrom glen to glen, and down the mountain sideThe summer’s gone, and all the leaves are falling’Tis you, ‘tis you must go and I must bide.

And I shall hear, tho’ soft you tread above meAnd oh, my grave shall warmer, sweeter beFor ye will bend and tell me that you love meAnd I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
